I need more sandwiches in my life.

Tell me what you like for sandwiches. Or don’t.

Final CSA bag

It was interesting to try doing a farmshare - had mixed feelings on the variety and amount in each weeks shipment. I would recommend anyone to try it out if they are interested- though I probably won’t be doing it again. Next year I’ll likely just garden.

It was nice to share everything with my family and coworkers though.

Low spoon Trader Joe’s haul

I’ve been struggling with my mental health lately (schizophrenia) so just grabbed some ready made vegan food to make it easier for me; to make sure I eat something. $47 for all of this, not too bad.

Going to make some grilled tomato sandwiches on sourdough with the dill dressing. Probably some chorizo tacos too.

That’s Anita by the way - she insists on inspecting all food that comes in the house.

Instant ramen with extras

Been trying out some instant ramen noodles lately - really enjoying doctoring them up.

Jin veggie ramen with mushrooms & scallions sauted in oil and soy sauce. With soy sauce and chili crisp added in and fresh onions on top. Also added garlic powder and some fresh ground pepper.

Have any tips for me for future ramen experiments?

Gravy post

So.. I’ve been vegan for some months now- I did not anticipate how much research I would be doing on gravy. Most people don’t realize how important gravy really is (very). Anyway - here is my latest acquisition- let me know if you want more posts on gravy. Thanks.

Decided to treat myself as it’s rare to for me to get takeout. From a place called the Thai orchid.

My 1st shipment came!! Any tips for me?

Ordered the 6 pack - and can confirm it came with bonus taco crumbles and vegan jerky!!

How should I store this stuff? I’m single so it will take me awhile to go through 6 bags!

Any tips for preparation also?

Thanks!!
